Lanegan is out touring his most recent album Gargoyle – ‘as a breakout attempt though Gargoyle gets itself caught on the perimeter fence’, Live4ever reflected in our review, ‘but there are still fine moments here, and worse prisons to be stuck in’:
“The claustrophobic blues-folk of Sister is, for example, a merry set of archetypes: “Set the sky on fire/the savage kingdom is blind” delivered at a funereal pace, whilst opener Death’s Head Tattoo is drenched in ersatz stripper-goth beats and dry ice synths a go-go, rehashing Phantom Radio’s slightly perverse alt groove schtick.”
The other UK gigs this week took Lanegan to Birmingham, Glasgow and Manchester.
